Renate Seifarth
Gewinn und Verlust, Ehre und Verachtung, Lob und Tadel, Freude und Leid werden die acht weltlichen Winde genannt, die alle treffen, Erwachte und Nicht-Erwachte. Begegnet der Weise diesen Erfahrungen mit dem Wissen um die Wirklichkeit der Veränderung, findet jedoch kein Hängen statt und ist erlöst vom Leiden.

2024-10-05 Can We ‘Escape’ Suffering? 47:47
Jean Esther
This talk touches into the suffering that results from a lack of understanding of the natural laws of impermanence, unsatisfactoriness, and the absence of a solid self and the peace of resting in ‘not knowing’.

2024-10-05 Q&A 21:13
Ajahn Sucitto
The original questions were live. They have been précised and read by a third person. Q1 A woman asks: I have a sister who's in a care home and lives far away. She's younger than I and I feel a degree of responsibility and want to help her. It's been discovered there's been some theft from her bank account which she has control over. The police and care home staff are involved. So the teaching on activation seems very appropriate for me. I'm noticing that my activation to get involved seems to take me over is getting really difficult to handle. What can you repeat or recommend? 03:02 Q2 I find as I practice more and more, I am less willing to deal with worldly things like money, focusing on the future. There's also a sense of contentment with the way things are. How can I go about my practice as this unfolds? 05:51 Q3 My question is similar to the previous one, finding opportunities to reflect internally rather than be wrapped up in work and everything. These opportunities exist and have improved but they seem to be fewer than I would like. How can I incorporate this with having to live my everyday life? I feel I can't leave everything and just go like the Buddha did and I don't seem satisfied with my current situation. Anything else you can offer? 10:19 Q4 Regarding the kandhas, did the Buddha or could you recommend any dedicated formal practice in this area? 15:39 Q5 I've recently extricated myself from a 5-year relationship which was very difficult for me. It seems like when we extricate ourselves from an arrangement like this it seems like it's become just a dream. All the entanglement and energy put into it and then it just ... ends. I'm asking myself 'Was there ever any love, any care?' And it seems very shocking and it seems like the whole of life is like that. Part of me wants to reach out and say: 'Did you care?' But it's over and that seems pointless. Could you say something about that please?
